“You had better nip that thought in the bud!”
How would you gladly move around without having a screen protector for your recent purchase of the iPhone 12 pro max? just how?
Maybe (and just maybe) I have been quite pissed with the manner in which some people flaunt their iPhone 12 pro max around without a screen protector.
It kind of makes me wonder if they really exchanged their bucks for this lovely device or is there something I’m missing?… Anything?
Well, I really do not care about that missing piece (at least, for now). What I care about is how you would make the right decision in choosing the best screen protector for purchase.
First, let me ask you; what factor(s) do you consider before making a screen protector purchase? If any, feel free to send in your comment or write back to me.
In fact, it is no surprise at all that most people do not put into consideration any factor(s) before making that purchase.
Newsflash: most people make a purchase based on aesthetics or better yet, juicy features – which of course, are sort of consideration too.
I crave your indulgence to guide you through some of the factors and selection techniques to consider when choosing a screen protector for your iPhone 12 pro max.
Nature of material
There are 3 main types of materials being used in the manufacture of screen protectors. Before I go into the details, let me save you the pain of pronunciation as the names are quite jaw-breaking.
But, just in case, you want to give it a try, be sure to read through till the end for the full meaning of the abbreviations.
These materials include PET, TPU and tempered glass (layered form). A striking distinction between the PET and TPU is such that while the former is light and soft, the latter appears to be quite hard.
For the layered tempered glass, there are several types of layers which include: an absorbent silicone coating, an oleophobic nano-coating and shatterproof film.
These layers have no other job but to protect your device from fingerprint marks and dirt smear that spreads across your screen.
Plus, you get to enjoy an improved and comfortable use of your device.
9H resolution
When it comes to screen resolution, we take into consideration, its longevity. You do not want to keep changing screen protectors intermittently.
There is a mineral hardness rating range on which the hardness of any screen is been graded. While diamond ranges at 10, you have a scale of 5 for glass.
Having a 9H hardness makes the screen protector scratch-resistant.
Total and fractional coverage
In the case of full coverage, the screen protector spreads across the whole screen of your device, fully delivering a crystal clear appearance and an amazing touch screen receptiveness.
On the flip side, the fractional (partial) coverage does a fair job in covering the display pixel area majorly.
HD clarity
Should the quality of your screen appearance be diminished as a result of adding a screen protector? hell, no!
Instead, it should be enhanced. Most plastic screen protectors, over time, decreases clarity hence, your need to purchase a tempered screen protector as they deliver a long-lasting HD clear screen.
Screen privacy
Who does not like the idea of screen privacy? I do and I bet you do too and only the tempered glass screen protector can do a perfect job on that as it comes with a distinct privacy filter technology that allows the passage of light in a specified direction.
Size
You do not want to purchase an over/ undersized screen protector thus, your need to be sure of the standard size that would fit your device perfectly.
Price
I know you’ve been waiting patiently for this. Well, it is here now. you do not expect the plastic screen protectors to upscale a particular amount. It usually comes cheap.
While the tempered glass screen is a bit pricey but affordable – good things come at a price.
Sequel to this, it’s right about the time I let you in on the three types of screen protectors you can purchase for your iPhone 12 pro max.
